why? you don't like the ls7?

Mike 08-30-2007 08:38 PM

oh then forget it. lol. sorry for the hijack.

Mike 08-30-2007 08:52 PM

i know the ls7 is gonna be the next big thing for modded street cars, but i dont know how its gonna 60foot since it is obviously an oem clutch designed (i know to handle the z06) but for drivability and comfort

camaro2you 08-31-2007 03:28 PM

Well it looks like i will go the six speed route, anyone have any cores laying around that have good gears and such so i can have it rebuilt?

Mike 08-31-2007 06:20 PM

if your 4l60 wasnt beat, id consider going auto..........

Haha, ya 111xxx miles and the valves are starting to stick.

NJSPEEDER 09-01-2007 01:43 PM

do you intend to race it or jsut cruise it? for drag racing an auto is the quick way around 99 times out of 100. for cruising and general driving enjoyment, i woudl say the M6 would be a lot more fun to have.

Its going to see more cruise time than track time, maybe once or twice a month ill take it to the track but my 86 is going to be the track car.

mc73nova 09-01-2007 04:18 PM

I would say the m6 for the street...
as for this,you must have never driven a fast car

eh...i'd rather have a 9 second 3 pedal car over a comperable auto anyday, theres plenty of single digit manuals
i see your argument, i've driven an 11 sec. ls1 car and it was stab and go, it was a lot of fun, but not overly

CJDZ24_Z28 09-04-2007 09:28 PM

A4's aren't fun to me. I have one in my TA but i can live with it cause my SS is a M6. If I ever brought a new car with a auto from a dealer i want someone to shoot me

Jersey_TA 09-08-2007 02:52 AM

I voted auto......A stage 3 Rossler 4L60, and 4400 Vigalante sit in the T/A, so I'm biased :) I drive it on the weekends since I have the vette for a DD.

yeah, but would you rather tach it to 4400 and stab and go, or dump the 3rd pedal at 7 grand like brando says? :twisted:
